AUSTIN CARGILL “Austy From the faraway Lebanon St. comes this young- man. “Austie” has been attending our local educational center for four years and yet he has been so quiet that not many know him. But those of us that do are privileged. Some say that “Austie” rises with the sun in order to get to school on time, but he neither admits nor denies it. From the portals of M. H. S. “Austie” plans to enter into his business career. May his quest be fruitful. AMY L. CATTLE, Y “Camey Club (2) (3) (4) „ , „ - Poetry Club ( 4 ) ; “ Charm School (2); Orchestra (4); School Band (2) (3) (4). To Amy’s lot fell the arduous task of carrying the bass drum in the band. The foregoing statement may sound as though tinged with sarcasm, but it isn’t. If you don’t believe it, try it yourself and see how well IZ h e U ’ specially if ' Tina King is on the walloping end. Nevertheless, Amy got a lot of fun out of it, and the same can be said of her attitude toward all trying situations, even in Room 53! You know, Amy liked Chemistry so well she took it a second year, but the se- cret is out, much as she loved Cicero she refused to take a College Entrance Exam in it for fear people might find out bow much she knew about him, hence her sur- prising fortitude! Amy is going to Mt. Holyoke next year and it is a foregone conclusion that her never-sav- die spirit will carry her far.

BRYAN “Ripper” IH-Y (3) (4); Hoys ' Debatiny Club (2), Sergeant-at- Arms, (3), Vice President (4); Poetry Club (4); Musical (3) ; “ Two Vagabonds (4) ; Ice Hockey, Manager (4) Inter- class Debates (2) (3) (4); School Band (4); School De- bating Team (4). Behold our noble hockey manager! Fred worked hard and efficiently in this capacity in his senior year with good results. He was a man to be relied upon when any of the various teams were to be transported to vari- ous cities. Fred is an apt debator and has played an important part in the life of the club. He has taken part in all interclass debates with great success. He and his inseparable pal, Fred Connors, are to he seen most any time driving around in the Nash sedan. JEANETTE BURNS “Tootik Girls ' Club (2) (3) (4); “ Mikado ” (2); Traffic Sguad (3) (4); Physical Education Leader (1) (2); Basketball (4) ; Class Team (3) (4); Field Hockey (3) (4); Gym Team (1). Jeanette’s interests have been mostly confined to sports, but she has also found time to partake in the Mikado, and Girls’ Club. She won two field Ihockey let- ters by her aggressive playing, besides making the var- sity basketball team in her senior year. “Tootie” has been a competent member of the traffic squad and has certainly made the freshies step lively. May you always keep the “will to win” which you have displayed in high school, Jeanette. Here is indeed one of our most quiet fellows. He goes his way disturbing no one and acquiring good marks. Perhaps John’s favorite subject is Bookkeeping — at least it is a subject which seems to interest him greatly. We would almost call him a woman-hater if it wasn’t for the fact that he was seen — o;h, well, we won ' t give you away this time, John, if you ' ll promise to be good in the future! He is undecided as to what he will do next year, but’ 28 sends her best wishes for success, John. .JOHN BURNHAM

“Ski” Clements entered Melrose High after grad- uating from the Gooch School in 19 24. He has always been popular throughout the school and was elected to the cla a s Presidency by a large majority in the Junior year. He is a first class basketball player, chosen by his teammates as captain for the past season. Ralph plans to go to the “Y” College at Springfield where he will undoubtedly train to be a Coach. He is one of 28’s two pair of twins. He has always been more or less of a happy-go-lucky fellow with an attractive personality, ex- celling in all physical activities. CATHERINE E. CLEMONS “Kitty” Kitty needs no introduction to the members of M. H. S. As you all probably know she came to Mel- rose from Wakefield in her Freshman year, immediately making friends which have lasted throughout her high school career. “Kitty” has always been one of our most cheerful and peppy members, making loads of fun wherever she goes. Although “Kay” is a member of Girls’ Club and Rainbow her attendance of an evening is usual- ly limited to 8.00 p. m. when a certain roadster is known to be waiting outside. As a final statement we shall sim- ply have to classify her as another one of those snappy blondes that gentlemen prefer. LAURA BOOTH COBLEIGH “Laura” Girls’ Club (4); “Two Vagabonds’’ (4); Basketball, Class Team (1) (2) (3) (4); Field Hockey (4); Girls ' Gym Team (1). Laura has gone thru high school dipping lightly into athletics, and other activities, getting good marks, and, best of all, keeping her sunny disposition. She was one of the proud members of the junior basketball team, and she had a good reason to be — after helping to beat the fast senior group and thus securing her numer- als. Laura joined the Girls’ Club in her senior year and was one who could be depended on when help was needed.
